Tips:

  • Use fresh lemons: Fresh lemons will give your biscotti the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use 1 tablespoon of bottled lemon juice for every 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the biscotti tough. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will make it easier to slice and shape.
  • Bake the biscotti until they are golden brown: The biscotti should be golden brown on the outside and slightly soft on the inside.
  • Let the biscotti cool completely before slicing: The biscotti will be easier to slice if you let them cool completely before slicing.

Conclusion:

These lemon biscotti are a delicious and easy-to-make summer treat. They are perfect for parties, picnics, or just a snack at home. With their bright lemon flavor and crispy texture, these biscotti are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
